Polkadot’s official account just announced: the native stablecoin dotUSD is live. There’s no issuing company; in the first phase, it will be redeemable 1:1 for USDT, with DOT collateral to be added later. The OpenGov referendum passed with over 98% approval.

The market was up a couple of percentage points over $DOT 24 hours, with trading volume topping 100 million. What do you think of this move toward decentralized stablecoins—does it have what it takes? Let’s discuss in the comments.
